This review summarizes the recent results for top quark and Higgs boson measurements from experiments at Tevatron, a proton–antiproton collider at a center-of-mass energy of [Formula: see text], and the Large Hadron Collider, a proton–proton collider at a center-of-mass energy of [Formula: see text]. These results include the discovery of a Higgs-like boson and measurement of its various properties, and measurements in the top quark sector, e.g. top quark mass, spin, charge asymmetry and production of single top quark.

This review summarizes the program in the physics of the top quark being pursued at Fermilab's Tevatron proton–antiproton collider at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. More than a decade after the discovery of the top quark at the two collider detectors CDF and D0, the Tevatron has been the only accelerator to produce top quarks and to study them directly.The Tevatron's increased luminosity and center-of-mass energy offer the possibility to scrutinize the properties of this heaviest fundamental particle through new measurements that were not feasible before, such as the first evidence for electroweak production of top quarks and the resulting direct constraints on the involved couplings. Better measurements of top quark properties provide more stringent tests of predictions from the SM of elementary particle physics. In particular, the improvement in measurements of the mass of the top quark, with the latest uncertainty of 0.7% marking the most precisely measured quark mass to date, further constrains the prediction of the mass of the still to be discovered Higgs boson.

The pseudorapidity distributions of charged particles produced in [Formula: see text] annihilations and AA collisions at high energies are investigated by using a revised thermalized cylinder model. The Monte Carlo calculated results are compared and found to be in good agreement with the experimental data of [Formula: see text] annihilations at center-of-mass energy [Formula: see text], 546, 200, and 53 GeV, Au–Au collisions at [Formula: see text] and 130 A GeV, and Pb–Pb collisions at [Formula: see text].
